On how to turn a kind protagonist into a black lotus

"Bang—" The iron cage was closed at once, and Chu Qingming flew out of Bai Zhaojun's arms when he saw someone locked the door and left.

"We're locked up now, how should we leave?" Chu Qingming stood on the young man's shoulders. The room was not big, and there was only one candle flickering in the wind, as if it would be extinguished in the next second.

"I don't know." Bai Zhaojun looked at the brass lock, it was very strong, and he didn't have anything like a sword, so he couldn't open it at all.

"What should I do..." Chu Qingming fluttered his wings, pondered for a long time, and finally fell into the young man's hands.

"The gap in this cage is not small, you can still get out." Bai Zhaojun said softly.

"It's useless for me to go out! This place is deserted, and there is only this small dilapidated village, and no one can be found to save it..."

As Chu Qingming spoke, he began to think of a way again. The corner of Bai Zhaojun's mouth curled up slightly, and he reached out to stroke his feathers, "The world is vast. When you go out, find a place to live well."

"What do you mean!" Chu Qingming immediately became furious after hearing his words.

He doesn't talk about anything, he only talks about loyalty, and he has lived with Bai Zhaojun for so long, no matter what, they are brothers!Is he one of those bird...people who abandon their brothers for their own safety? !

"Bai Zhaojun, let me tell you, all these years, I have done a lot of fighting, and I have never left my brother and ran away!"

"But you..." Before Bai Zhaojun finished speaking, Chu Qingming interrupted him, "Don't tell me the big truth, I haven't studied, I don't like that! A bird can't fly by itself. If you say this again, I won't talk to you for three days, no, three hours."

"I see." Bai Zhaojun lowered his head and rested his forehead on the little sparrow's head, "I won't say anything to let you leave alone."

"Hmph!" Chu Qingming flew out from his palm, flapping his little wings and leaving the cage, "Wait for me to get the key."

"It's too dangerous..." Bai Zhaojun couldn't call him back, he could only watch the little figure disappear into the darkness.

"This dungeon is quite convoluted." Chu Qingming looked around.

Sometimes a torch suddenly appeared at the corner of the dungeon, and it almost burned his feathers several times.

"No one has entered this dungeon for a long time, but last time it was that..." The voice came faintly, Chu Qingming's eyes lit up, and he relaxed his movements, standing on a log and looking down at the two drinking men .

They are both in their 30s. It seems that the two of them are the guards here.

"You still dare to mention that person, if Wanniang hears about it, she will definitely cut your tongue out."

"Isn't she here?" The man ate peanuts, "By the way, why did Wan Niang treat that person like this? Not only does she hate herself, but she doesn't allow others to mention it."

"Women! It's all very troublesome, but I heard that it seems to be because of a man."

"man?"

"These things happened 20 years ago. Who cares so much if it's true or not! There are different versions. You can find out by talking to the women in the village, but they probably won't say it easily now..."

Chu Qingming waited for a long time, yawned several times, his feet were numb, only then did he see two men passed out drunk on the table.

He moved his stiff wings and flew to the table with a flutter.

The wine glass was tipped over, and the wine wetted his feathers. Chu Qingming shook in disgust, and decided to get the key first.

He searched up and down the two men for a long time, only to see a little silver glint in one man's skirt.

found it!

Chu Qingming got into his clothes and took out the key, almost fainted by the man's smell.

Sure enough, it was better to stay in Bai Zhaojun's arms.

He regained his composure, and was about to open his wings to fly back, but was caught by a hand.

"Oh, I caught you!"
